Spelar ingen roll, Nietzsche skulle likställt dem båda. Övermänniskans "ideal" kommer inte ur/innebär inte självuppoffring, om man nu inte kan självuppoffra sig själv för sig själv.
"The overwhelming pressure of the out-flowing forces does not allow for any sort of oversight or caution. This is called 'sacrifice'; people praise 'heroism' because of a hero's indifference to his own well-being, his devotion to an idea, a great cause, a fatherland: but this is all misunderstanding... A hero pours out, pours over, consumes himself, does not spare himself, - fatalistically, disastrously, involuntarily, as a river is involuntarily when it owerflos its banks."
The Twilight of The Idols § 44
"A virtue needs to be our own invention, our own most personal need and self defence: in any other sense, a virtue is just dangerous. Whatever is not a condition for life harms it: a virtue that comes exclusively from a feeling of respect for the concept of 'virtue' as Kant would have it, is harmful. 'Virtue', 'duty', 'goodness in itself', goodness that have been stamped with the character of the impersonal and universally valid - these are fantasies and manifestations of decline, of the final exhaustion of life, of the Königsberg Chinesianity. [...] Nothing ruins us more profoundly or inwardly than 'impersonal' duty, or any sacrifice in front of the Moloch of abstraction. [...] When the instinct of life compels us to act, pleasure proves that the act is right."
